MAN Cryo

Marine LNG fuel gas systems


MAN Cryo and MAN Diesel & Turbo
A new driving force

From February 2016, MAN Cryo formerly known as Cryo AB became a product
brand of MAN Diesel & Turbo. With MAN Cryo, MAN Diesel & Turbo situated in Gothen-
burg, Sweden, is one of the worlds leading manufacturers of cryogenic equipment
for the storage, distribution and handling of Liquefied Natural Gases (LNG).

For more than 50 years Cryo AB has put skills and advanced technology at the
service of the gas industry. As such, MAN Cryo products are available for de-
manding marine and industrial gas companies when it comes to selecting the
most efficient and economical cryogenic equipment for marine gas fuel systems
as well as for offshore and onshore bunkering systems.

MAN Diesel & Turbo is the worlds leading provider of large-bore diesel engines
and turbomachinery. Our product portfolio includes two-stroke and four-stroke
engines for marine and stationary applications, turbochargers and propellers, as
well as gas and steam turbines, compressors and chemical reactors.

MAN solutions can be found in ship propulsion, engine-based power plants and
turbomachinery trains for the oil & gas and process industries. We support our
global customers with a comprehensive range of after-sales services under the
MAN PrimeServ brand.

of about 1040 C depending on the water tempera-
ture supplied by the ship.

The LNG supply to the vaporisers is ensured by the


inner pressure of the storage tank. The pressure build-
up unit (PBU) guarantees a constant pressure level.
The vaporisers (VAP and PBU) are essential compo-
nents for the operation of the ship; therefore, our
systems are equipped with vaporisers of MAN Cryo
design.

Coldbox (tank connection space)


The coldbox, which is attached to the tank, includes
equipment such as VAP+PBU product vaporisers and
pressure build-up vaporisers, valves, and instrument
valves for controlling the LNG tank. The coldbox is
insulated with A-60 insulation.

Bunker station Vaccum-insulated C-type tank


The cryogenic LNG tank consists of two tanks, i.e. the
inner vessel, which contains the liquid LNG, and the
Bunkering LNG to storage tanks outer vessel, which is regarded as a second barrier.
